YOUR VOICE: FOR DEMOCRACY

Pro bono coaching for electoral candidates and activists

**************************************************

Candidates, Movement Leaders and Activists: find your voice.

“I was painfully hoarse all the time, hard to hear, and getting worse. Marcella sat me down for 90 minutes and showed me how the physical tension in my throat was related to tension I felt in my role as a group leader, and how to release both. It was so useful. I used to be hampered because my voice croaked, but not any more.“ Tara Geer, founder of Action Potluck, a grassroots political organization that grew to almost 400 volunteers within weeks of the Trump election

Candidates lose votes and leaders lose impact because of how they speak.You lose impact if your voice is nasal or harsh or unpleasant.You lose impact if your voice is too gentle, you can’t be heard or you’re hoarse.You lose impact if you’re nervous, pressured or ambivalent – it shows in your voice.If you’re a woman, your voice gets criticized as harshly as your clothes.

Just adding vocal technique makes it worse. You lose impact because a manipulated sound registers as untrustworthy.

You can have that impact and get those votes.I help people become free from the blocks that choke off their voice, confident in public speaking, and clear about their message and purpose.Then your sound will be persuasive, sustainable and authentic.

One free consultation. Perhaps 90 minutes is all you’ll need, too.We can work remotely, anywhere, any time. It’s that important.I do this for a living; the pro bono offer is my contribution to the health of my country.

You need your voice to work for you, not against you.I can help, fast.
